  • Contact Credit Companies Time comes when you might need to talk to your creditors and ask them if they can work out on an alternate payment plan for you. You might also need to reduce your interest rates and debts as well. It is important to convince them and let them understand your problem so that they can take a step. Company Name: Address: Date: Re: Your account no Dear Sir/ Madam, I am presently going through some financial difficulties and fear that I will not be able to meet my monthly payments to you. I do not want to declare bankruptcy and want to try and work out an alternate payment plan so that I dont have to default on this debt. I would like to suggest a strategy if it is acceptable. If you could close my account, waive the interest payments and accept a new balance of (50% or whatever you propose) of what I currently owe, then I can afford to make a monthly payment of $_____. (Relate your financial trouble, only as much is required for official purposes) I am sure you will agree to the situation which has caused this fallout. Please feel free to have one of your representatives call me and work out the final strategy. If you feel, you cant adjust the payment plan; I would be forced to default on this account. I intend to pay creditors who can work for me. Thanks for your cooperation, Sincerely, Your Signature Your Name

  • Follow up Credit Companies This letter is meant for those who have created a contact with the credit bureau but not getting the expected results. Time has come when you need to follow up the matter and pose serious threats to them. Please don't forget to keep a copy of this letter with you and make it a point to send the letter by registered mail.

    Your name: your address:

    Credit Bureau's name: Address:

    Date:

    Re: Dispute letter of [your account no.] Dear Sir/Madam, It is a formal notice to remind you that you have forgotten to respond to my earlier dispute letters, [date]. I am enclosing herewith all the copies of those letters and the return receipt signed by you, [date].

    According to federal law you should have responded within 30 days of the receipt of my letter. But it has crossed the allowed limit and you are presently in violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act. I am maintaining all records of our correspondence for help during an FTC investigation into the matter.

    I do understand that you receive a huge volume of letters everyday and so my letter could have been misplaced. If that is the case, I am sure you will be able to sort it out early. For your convenience I am sending copies of my original request and the proof of the inaccurate item placed on my credit report.

    Thus the following information must be verified and removed from my credit report at the earliest.

    Creditor agency, [account no.]

    Sincerely, Your Signature Your Name Your Address

  • Verification Request to Credit Bureaus If the credit bureau comes with a verified response when you dispute a negative mark, then a letter should be sent to them. It is your responsibility to ask for the information regarding this. Keep a copy and send the letter to the concerned person.

    Companys name: Companys address: Date: Credit Bureau Credit Bureau address:

    Dear Sir/Madam,

    I have recently received a verified response to my request of validating the credit report. But the disputed item still remains. This is a formal request asking you for the description of the procedures adopted to verify the claims. I would also like to request for the business names, addresses and phone numbers of the people who have been contacted for the process. This request is my right according to the Fair Credit reporting Act.

    It is highly disappointing to find a credit bureau not following the procedures and not maintaining the accuracy norms. I would like you to comply with the laws and furnish me the information asked for within the provisional 15 days.

    I am resubmitting my request to fasten the reinvestigation and verification processes.

    Name of the Creditor/agency/account number:

    Here, state the reasons for disputing this negative mark.

    Sincerely,

    Your Signature Your Name Your Address
